Bodegas Parra Jiménez

Spain lagged way behind the rest of Western Europe in embracing organic agriculture, so the brothers Parra (Francisco, Javier & Luis) could be said to have pioneered organic wine production in sun-blasted Castilla La Mancha, even though their work began in the 1990s. With 3 vineyard sites in the region and a winery ‘Cuesta Colora’ with a capacity of 2 million litres, they are major players in the arid land of Don Quixote.Vineyard size 160 hectares. Organic since 1995.
